Pleasantly Surprised

So over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to cultivate friendships with people who were just acquaintances. …And I must say, I’ve been pleasantly surprised.

Last night, one of my new “friends” told me that I was a very strange mix. I gave him the double take and an excuse me? He says you know part scientist – part girly-girl. Here’s my scientist part below. I don’t know what image I should find to represent the girly me. I’ve always thought of myself as more of a tomboyish type. Hmph.

In other news, I’ve met quite a charming young gentleman. I met him back in 2007, but I didn’t really take that opportunity to get to know him well. There wasn’t that much that I could really do – it was the week before I graduated from undergrad. *Le Sigh – a much simpler time in life* Anyway, he’s a total sweetheart, or so it seems. I’m hoping to get to know him better. As I learn more, I’ll keep you posted.
